CaptainQuintero Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Cool stuff! Not keen on the big 'connie A' style hoyo band but it's tinkling into the wind at this point. I think the presentation would be awesome if the bands had been dropped, just that white ribbon *classy*!! What is the size difference between the d5 and d6? The prices of all the 2014 releases will be interesting considering the 2013 'year of the ass banditry' price setting! I'd guess the hoyo similar to the Connie A in price? The biggest looser coro, esplendidos price? Trinidad had to get it right after the rob T and T extra flops. Come on PL Picadores please be sensible! I should say, none of the above are my pics. If the owners of the pics request, I will delete them immediately. I think you'll be fine bro, botl aren't anal about stuff like that
Bclass1 Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Save you the time. They are a ways back in the #Cohiba tag. Thanks Rye.. These are monsters. Partagas Serie seem to be releasing smaller, Cohiba can't help but go bigger..
bigbwalls Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Personally, I'm looking forward to trying the D No. 6. That's a perfect "dog walking" sized cigar. And at that size, I'm hoping it comes out of the gate with great flavors.
shlomo Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Save you the time. They are a ways back in the #Cohiba tag. that looks like such an uncomfortable smoke....
ejewell Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 i have not smoked any reservas, but agree the monte 2 gr was not so great...maybe not "****" but not any better than a regular 2 with a few years on it. the reservas have generally received pretty good reviews though. If the MGR isn't much more than a well aged No2. Which would be worth it?
ramon_cojones Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 If the d6 come in a 5 pack tin like the half coronas that would be nice. Very disappointed at the NC like real estate that the cohiba bands cover on the cigar but not like I will be buying them anyway. Also the hoyo band is terribly upsetting as well going into connie a territory like cq said. Nothing exciting which was expected anyway. 1
CaptainQuintero Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 I'm actually being turned towards the party D6 if they get the blend right and come in 5-tins. Those and the Picadores are looking very interesting. Not overly interested in the Cohiba Patel though but I'm sure it will fly. Practically speaking, I'm not sure how I would go about smoking the cigars with increasingly large double/triple bands. The amount of glue being used to stick them onto the wrapper seems to be only increasing, I can imagine my cigar looking like my dog has been chewing o it before I actually get to light it after battling with the bands! It's nice to see that some NC manufacturers are starting to release cigars without bands again (No dress code springs to mind) so maybe HSA will catch on to that trend too.
Lant63 Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 For some reason I feel as if that the Cohiba posted above is not that actual release.
Bclass1 Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 For some reason I feel as if that the Cohiba posted above is not that actual release. I couldn't help but think the same thing when I saw it.. Looks like it could be the correct rg but I know nothing of the guy who posted it.. Looks like it's at a shop though. Was trying to figure out if it were a LCDH
shlomo Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 If the MGR isn't much more than a well aged No2. Which would be worth it? I didnt say it was "not much more than a well aged Monte 2". I said that a well aged Monte 2 is just as enjoyable to me. For me, the M2GR is about 45-50 per stick and the regular Monte 2 is about 10-12, when the Monte 2 with some years on it tastes just as good, one would have to be nuts to drop 4-5X the money for something that is roughly equal.
Rye Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Well, my friend Chewy keeps sending me pics of what I'm missing at the Festival this year. I am a little surprised to see the Trinidad Entubo.
Bclass1 Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Well, my friend Chewy keeps sending me pics of what I'm missing at the Festival this year. I am a little surprised to see the Trinidad Entubo. Very nice Rye... Look at that thing in the middle! You big fatty!
Rye Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 That tubo looks too big for the cigar to me. Maybe it's padded or something
Franko Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Well, my friend Chewy keeps sending me pics of what I'm missing at the Festival this year. I am a little surprised to see the Trinidad Entubo. Damn I can't wait for those trinis in tubos, love tubos..
Blakes Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 I would love to see them next to a PC to give the size some perspective.
ramon_cojones Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 nice lookin tubo, not interested in trinidads thanks for the pics rye
maxcjs0101 Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Wow both the Vigia and the Cohiba EL looks stunning. Btw, im hoping the Quintero will be a C&C
Lotusguy Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 A 58RG Cohiba $$$$$ LE? They can shove it where the sun don't shine. No worries, they will sell all they can make to the usual fanbois. I do like the design of the Trini tubo, though. 1
Rye Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 It looks the same gauge as the Trinidad which is a 55. I'm not sure where this 58rg comes from
Lotusguy Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 I'm not sure where this 58rg comes from Official HSA press release http://habanosnews.habanos.com/en/discovering-taste-trinidad-vigia Scroll to the bottom.
SteveGriff Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 From David Savona's Twitter Feed: The fat cigar trend cont's. The new Cohiba EL 58 ring gauge. Passed out at the festival dinner... Blinkin' Eck!
maxcjs0101 Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Yay, fat sticks! Fat is good, just like my oh nevermind
